Again, not endoring any specific case just endorsing SPECIFICITY, COST, and "Collaterals".

I was not speaking to just one case. Today's incident, is _the norm_.

These attacks are widespread, damaging, and the repercussions are felt for decades in their wake. We _are_ being carpet bombed, and the costs for the victims are ongoing and growing. The collateral damage is everywhere.

Do you really think there's no impact?

> Cyber units from at least one nation state routinely try to explore and exploit Australia’s critical infrastructure networks, almost certainly mapping systems so they can lay down malware or maintain access in the future.

> We recently discovered one of those units targeting critical networks in the United States. ASIO worked closely with our American counterpart to evict the hackers and shut down their global accesses, including nodes here in Australia.

You're an idiot, so am I for being drawn into this and having to re-itterate and clarify.

Did I say there's no impact?

'I appreciate that these scammers are just stealing old people's money online instead of killing them and taking it'!
